Vacu-Lug Responsible for Novateck Production and Distribution

Following the earlier publication of an article featuring details of the recently announced Pirelli/Vacu-Lug cooperation, Tyres & Accessories would like to clarify that Vacu-Lug will be responsible for the production and distribution of Pirelli’s Novateck brand of commercial vehicle retreads and not the sales and marketing of these products.

The original article (first published 14/03/2007) stated: “the agreement is about much more than just retread production. According to managing director, Tim Hercock, Vacu-Lug will also take on sales, marketing and distribution responsibilities.” This was incorrect and the text should have read: “Vacu-Lug will take on production and distribution responsibilities.”
